BEA County Jobs by Industry, 1969–2022
How many jobs each Wisconsin county had in each industry from 1969 to 2022, counting every full- and part-time job, the self-employed, farm owners and partners included, not only payroll jobs. Use it to follow a county's jobs over half a century, to compare employees with business owners, or to see how farming, manufacturing and government employment changed county by county. BEA stopped publishing these figures after 2022.
